cSchedule::GetEvent(unsigned short, long) const
That's the culprit...
I wonder if it would be worth rewriting cSchedule to store events in a
binary tree based on time. A double-linked list could be included in the
nodes pointing to allow for scanning through the schedule in the
conventional way (for(cEvent *p = events.First()...)
This would cut down the amount of work required to find an event based on
time (used for timers, finding now/next events and probably numerous other
places). Another tree of pointers could be built based on event id, to speed
up searching based on IDs too.
What do people think, would it be worth me writing a patch?
